ing  deepily  enamored  upon  la- 
cynta,  a  beautifuUyong  Spa- 
nifh  Lady,  daughter  to  a  great  J 

Commander  in  the  vearres, 

{called  lulianus)  hath  often 
by  private Jolicitattons  and gifts>  tryed  to  Tvindk' 
her  to  his  embraces  ;  but  they  not  prevailing. ,  hee 
refilves  to  enioy  her  by  force :  whilflhee  Jdilesin 
theje  lufifuB  thoughts ,  Lothario,  (a  Gentleman 
of  better  fortunes  than  condition )  is  his  Pilot , 
fleering  bis  wickednejfeon.  To  helpe  which  with

Malsena )gets  acceffe  to  the  Lady  in  her  Fathers 
abfence ,  but  their  Engines  breaking,  he  ravines 
her*  The  Dove  beingth  ns  ruffled,  is  delivered 
out  of  one  Falcons  TaHons,to  the  gripe  of  another: 

A  z  Lothario 


The  Argument. 

Lothario  is  made  her  Keeper, whom  Iacynta  one 
day  finding  f  aft  ajleepe ,  takes  the  keyes  of  the  Ca - 
file  from  him, & fly es  to  her  Father  in  the  Campy 
who  bearing  the  florie  of  the  Ravifher ,  tomes 
with  thofe  Spanifb  Lords  in  his  Army,  to  bee  re¬ 
venged  on  the  Tyrant :  To  hafienthis  vengeance , 
the  African  is  taken  prijbner,  and  againe  feiat 
liberty,  with  condition  that  bee ) had  \ ally  aB  his 
fcattered  Troopes,  and  then  thofe  two  Armies  be¬ 
ing  incorporated  in  one,  to  drive  Roelerigo  out 
of  bis  Kingdomefff  to  inthrone  the  Moore  there. 
Mulymumen  fo  likes  the  ra<vi(hed  Lady, that 
he  begges  her  of  her  Father  to  be  his: but  Roderi- 
go  flying  into  Bifcany,  and  the  African  Lord  of 
aB,is [corned  by  Iacynta,  who  in  revenge,  caBs 
for  Iulianus (her  Father)  commanding  his  eyes 
to  be  put  out ,  and  her  tongue  to  be  cut  out,  and Jo, 
to  leade  himy  In  the  end,  the  Barbarian  to  fhorten 
lulianns  his  miferv,  give*  him  a  weapon ,  the 
Moore  hath  another, with  intent  to  runneful-butt 
atone  another,  much  intreaty  being  made  to  let 
Iacynta  dye  nobly,  tis promitt, and  then  they  both 
beingreadyto  runne,the  Moore fnatches  Iacynta 
before  him, and fotbeFatber  kils  his  own  Daugh¬
